Last year, I was devastated to hear it would take 4 years just to get a tee time at my dream course, Royal Portrush, but after reaching out to Tiger Booking, I got to play there this May.
With The Open taking place from July 17, the grandstands were already being set up, giving the course a full tournament atmosphere, the stunning scenery was so overwhelming, I literally took off my hat in awe. -

Just setting foot on Royal County Down, which had been on my bucket list, was an emotional moment. It wasn’t just a trip, it became a once-in-a-lifetime golf journey I’ll never forget.
The wind, terrain, and strategy made it a truly challenging course, but that only made it more immersive. Everything from booking to the actual round went smoothly with Tiger Booking, so I enjoyed the entire experience stress-free from start to finish. -

This was, without a doubt, ‘the greatest golf experience of my life’. The prestigious layout and raw natural terrain, worthy of an Open Championship venue, gave me chills. Standing in front of the Dunluce hole literally took my breath away.
It’s a tough place to book, but Tiger Booking made the whole process simple and seamless, making it much easier to plan. Thanks to them, I got to check off a major item from my bucket list.
